As part of 21 Century CC, the Education & Sports Wellness (PE-SW) program serves to instil in our students the significance of teamwork, resilience, creative problem solving, and character & value formation. Because the vast of our students are kinaesthetic and visual learners, the PE-SW Department’s curriculum gets geared to make learning experiential and enjoyable for them. 

Our pupils’ learning environment gets purposefully developed to ensure that – their learning is purposeful and fosters meaningful socio-emotional growth.

These opportunities help improve – our students’ P.I.ES (Physical, Intellectual, Emotional & Social). Furthermore, the PE – SW curriculum is developmental. Beginning with Exposure (to various sports, skills, and information), followed by Familiarisation through Practice, Refinement, and Consolidation.

In schools, the Ministry of Education (MOE) promotes sexuality education.

In schools, sexuality education (SEd) aims to help students understand the physiological, social, and emotional changes that occur as they grow older, develop healthy and rewarding relationships, including those with people of the opposite sex, and make wise, informed, and responsible sexuality decisions. The importance of the family as the basic unit of society lies at the heart of SEd. It entails promoting happy, heterosexual marriages and stable nuclear families with the help of extended family. The teaching and learning of SEd get based on respect for the many ethnic and religious communities in Singapore’s values and beliefs on sexuality issues.
